Abstract

The present invention discloses a control method and a control apparatus for a Flyback circuit. The Flyback circuit includes a primary switch, a secondary rectifier unit, a transformer and an output capacitor. The secondary rectifier unit includes a first terminal and a second terminal, which are electrically connected to the transformer and the output capacitor, respectively. In the control method for a Flyback circuit, after the secondary rectifier unit is controlled to be turned on once or twice according to the input voltage and/or output power of the Flyback, the primary switch is turned on to achieve the zero-voltage-switching. According to the invention, the zero-voltage-switching (ZVS) of the primary switch can be achieved under the entire input voltage range and the entire load range without adding additional power devices.
